CollegeProf Morse is the best professor UCSB has ever seen. She is so smart, well educated, and good at her job. She really cares about her courses and the students. She cares about each student and is so understanding and I finished UCSB literally because of this woman. Class very engaging - graded off 3 policy papers and a project. 100/10 amazing.
Great professor who cares about her students. Really shined a new light on the topic of human rights by showing us different perspectives and challenges surrounding the topic. Grading consisted of an in-class midterm, paper, group project, and section grade.
Don't listen to the bad reviews of 124. Look at the distribution. There is a submission bias here. It was a great class with no exams just a final policy proposal, in-class projects, and weekly homework. Once u get the hang of the rubric it's easy As on all of them. Go to office hours. Great lectures. Great professor. I had her for ps 7, it waschil
This class would not have been that hard and mentally draining if it weren't for the HORRIBLE TAs, this class drained me because the TA graded so harshly, was always late, had no clue what was going on, and was just rude to me.
Horrible grading criteria and graded assignments either a 0 or 100. The TAs were hardly any help especially Noosha! She was not helpful at all and rude . Did not want to help and had attitude all the time
First ever negative grade I've ever received at UCSB and I genuinely tried in this class. Professor and TA did not care whatsoever, lacked consideration, and gave out 0's over the smallest mistake. The TA does not know how to grade and will knock you down to a 0 over the smallest things. Don't take this class especially with the TAs this quarter.
